CONYERS, GA. — Tri-Land Properties Inc. has begun construction on the overhaul of Salem Gate Market, a 253,000-square-foot grocery-anchored shopping center in Conyers, about 25 miles southeast of Atlanta. The multimillion-dollar redevelopment will include a 55,000-square-foot Hobby Lobby, 20,000-square-foot Northern Tool + Supply, a 103-room hotel and an Allure Nail & Spa. Tri-Land is rebuilding Salem Gate in a public-private partnership with the City of Conyers. Salem Gate is the first project underway as part of the Conyers Gateway Village District, the product of a new zoning ordinance adopted by the City of Conyers in 2016. In February, the city approved a new Tax Allocation District designation allocating future tax revenues to repay Tri-Land for its infrastructure improvement costs. The metro Chicago-based developer plans to announce additional tenants in the family fashion, sporting goods and value retail segments in the near future. Tri-Land expects to deliver Salem Gate in early summer 2020.
